Excerpt from Hungary: Its Constitution and Its Catastrophe
Ancient Constitution; at another, for the laws of 1848 and the legitimate King Ferdinand V.; at another, that they were ani mated with the spirit of the Social and Democratic Republic; and at last, that the contest was exclusively against the House of hapsburg-lorraine. It is not' very difficult to perceive the inconsistency of such Opposite statements; but it is not easy to understand how utterly irreconcileable the first and most plausible assertion was with the facts of the case, Without some acquaintance with - the Ancient Hungarian Constitution, which was perhaps more peculiar in itself, and more curiously interest ing than its elder sister, the far-famed British constitution - that standing enigma to centralist statesmen. Such an assertion was specially adapted to conciliate the sympathies of England; and it might have prevailed in the absence of more complete informa tion, had not the striking fact of the party of the Mountain, in the French Chamber, supporting heartilythe cause of the Hun garian insurrection, been calculated to awaken suspicmn. N 0 order of things was ever more at variance with the principles of the Social and Democratic Republic than the Ancient Consti tution of Hungary. It is therefore excusable for those who are interested in the progress of rational freedom, to. Make inquiry before they pass judgment in this matter and if the result of such 1nqu1ry should have led them to conclusions at variance with many notions in circulation on the subject, to make such conclusions known, that the truth of them may be more generally appreciated if they are correct, or the error, if they be erroneous, refuted.
